Pillow Champ

Pillow Champ is a bold new take on the fighting game genre, calling back to classics like Street Fighter 2 with punchy 2.5D action, a range of game modes, and an irreverent, fluffy setting. Enter the Pillow Champ tournament, a joyful series of events and challenges that's altered society itself. Unravel the mystery of the Pillow Knights, an organization of ninjas who want to drag pillow fighting back into the world of the dark. Clean a car entirely using acrobatic pillow attacks, as our ancestors always intended. This is a deconstruction of fisticuffs video games. Replacing a blade with a pillow, blood with feathers, suffering with pleasure, grunts with laughter, this isn't the same game you grew up with, but it kind of sort of is, too.

  • Master the skills of 8 pillow-wielding warriors to become the ultimate Pillow Champ!
  • Smack your way to the top with robust single-player options, including a career mode with upgradeable character skills and an extensive story mode (2 character stories included at launch)!
  • Move sets and animations inspired by various cultural dances, martial arts, and exercises.
  • A set of hilarious, heartwarming stories about finding your passion, keeping it, and defeating the pillow-wielding ninjas who would stand in the way of your dreams.
  • Pillow fight your friends in local multiplayer, and challenge the world in online multiplayer supported by rollback netcode!
  • Character stories created by prolific game writer Xalavier Nelson Jr. (Hypnospace Outlaw, Space Warlord Organ Trading Simulator, etc.)!
  • A soundtrack you will listen to while you work or play!
  • A man entirely composed of pillows. Somebody free him from this torment. Please.
